It was a saint's day in the calendar, and I attended mass at the rathedral to hoar the music. Religions are bo mixed it is wise professionally to r to church to hear the music; especially so in this case, I beins the only practitioner in town. Had there been a formidable rival w ho leaned to one of the stronger sects say the Presbyterian I would attend upon the Methodist service, und yo to hear the preacher. There were some beautiful singers in the choir I mean the .sinking was beau tiful. After service I meant to tret a word with one of the beautiful singers had caught her eye, and had, in fact, re ceived a nod of recognition and an en couraging smile, when Brown confound him grasped mvhand and began in his provoking and ell'usive style "Why, I'octor, so glad to meet you; the very man 1 want to see. As you go my way we will walk together." ' "Would be happy, Mr. Iirown, but I have a call in another direction. S'moth er day, Mr. IJrown," said I hurriedly, and attempted to get away. "I will walk your way then," replied Brown, as ho laid his hand carelessly on my arm, "and as we go you will tell me how aunt Betsy gets on with the broken leg. Lead on I follow." "Your aunt is going to die," suid I desperately, "and wants to consult you about her will." "Why, Doctor, really this is too sud den. I will have to rely upon your friendship in my aflliction. We will dine together and afterwards drive in your fly to my aunt's the dear, good soul hoiv sorry I am." There was every incentive for me to shoot I'.rown on the spot, but with won derful forbearance I restrained my hand. A nobler means ol revenge and a safer swept across my mind, as I lead the way toward a certain narrow street. A brook highly charged with sewerage was here to be crossed. The passing wheels made at tins point a deep, oozy moiasb, into which 1 jostled Iirown iu passing. "Gracious! Brown," cried I, "can you swim? Keep your head out, man. Throw yourself on your back and tloat. Wait, I'll Dring a rail." Brown, heedless of my prudent coun sel, scrambled out with no greater dntri ment t!-.an the soiling of his tooth-pick gaiters and other garments up to the knees. I condoled with Brown, and comfort ed him with tho assurance that he was quite fortunate to escape so easily, as I had heard of loss of life in this morass, and to my personal knowledge a calf was suffocated here only two days ago ; and as it would be out of the question for him to visit his aunt now, I, for pity's sake, would undertake to keep her alive for a lew dpys longer. Brown was appeased, but bent on see ing his aunt. "Doctor," said he, "you are not the sort to desert a friend in need. Wo are much alike in point of size. We will repair the hiraclns of this disaster from your wardrobe, and visit my aunt at once." Tho scoundrel actually smiled, as though he thought he had perpetrated a witticism ! "Friend Brown," said I, in my most plausible tones, "I am going to visit a very sick patient in this part of town. You are not in good, presentable shape. I suggest that you take the shortest and least public path homeward, and that you a ait there until I come." "Doctor, 'your kindness is only ex ceeded by your beauty,'" quoted he. "I will stay with you. I will remain out side while you attend upon your patient. You could not suppose me capable of disregarding my dying aunt's request. And her w ill not made ! We must go, and that quickly. Doctor." "Very well," said I, "come on this way then." And I led him first down a street to tho south, then through an alley westward, and w hile he talked vol ubly of bis prospects contingent on the death of bis relative, I cogitated. "Brow n," said I, "yonder cottage with the timbered plat surrounding is where I am going. There is a fierce dog with the boy just turned the corner. I will leave you in the grape arbor, entirely concealed. You can amuse yourself there about live minutes." "While I rest here I will scrape- off some of the mud," said Brown, tu he entered the arbor. I lost no time in finding that boy, who was leading a small dog with a Hiring. "You are a good boy," said 1, "and that is a line dog. Can you hiss him on, and will ho run and bark ?" "You bet ( her life," answered the boy. "Here, CVsar; take 'em! take 'em!'' "Hold on, my little man ; let me tell you something, said 1. "I saw a tramp creep into your grape arbor, and I expect be will rob your bee hives there. Now, I wunt you to make him run, und I'll tell you bow. Just slip ulong and upset the hive at this end, and then run and upset the hive at the other end of the arbor, and hiss your dog, and here's a quarter for you." The boy was a good on,e, nnd followed I lottor. find then there was a tableau. Amid the confusion that ensued I made my escape unobserved, mentally convinced that Brown would postpone bis visit to his aunt until some future (Kcasion, and struck a bee-line for my ollice. I secured the door inside ug.iinst any possible intrusion, and abm st before I had time to feel the relief from a great burden, there came a thundering knock and call for admittance. It was an agonized voice, which was some comfort to me, ns I recognized it as Brown's voice. I seized my visiting outfit and fled through the rear door, and bv the sta bles,but w ithin ten minutes by the watch had recovered sullicient courage to venture to return openly to my otlice, where Brown was engaged in lighting bees, ami anathematising, and philoso phising, by turns in a most absurd fash ion. "Hello, old boy," exclaimed I; "what the deuce did you run away from me for? Couldn't you wait mi a fellow a minute ?" "Uun away from h 1 and ten thous and devils, (whack!) D n the bees, (whack! I they're in my hair; (spat!) they're under my clothes ; (dancing around) they're down my back and on my legs. ( )li, for (bid's sake. Doc, help me !" "Bees, did you say ? Sit down, Mr. Brown, and tell me ral mbi, now, what is the matter with you." And I placed an easy chair for Brown as I spoke, and de liberately proceeded to lay aside my hat and cane, and to sit down. "Blazes! (iemine! I whack ! I I got that one. Oh, fire ! Why, Doc, d n it, don't you see I'm full of bees? That infernal dog bounced out at me and upset the hives, and ispat!i here I am in this fix, and can't you do something'.'" "Oh! Ah. That's the way of it. I thought you couldn't wait, and started on foot to see your aunt," said I, sooth ingly. "Well, let me see ; you say they are alive yet? the bees, I mean, not your aunt. My dear Brown, it becomes my melancholy duty to bring you trie sad news of your aunt's death, which occurred at half-past one p. m. to-day so I was informed by a neighbor of your late aunt ns I returned. Now, Brown, bear it like a man." 'Bear it! bear it! vou sav, like a man?" repeated Brown, and there w:u a certain wildnes his manner and a glare in his eye that meant danger. Doc, il you don't help me kiil these bees I'll kill vou !"' "Certainly," said I, rising and moving warily toward the stairway. Come with me, Brown, and get out of them clothes at once yes, every stitch must come oil" ; how else can I fumigate and disinfect I mean chloroform them ami stupefy those bees? coat, vest, shoes, socks, necktie, collar, cull's, shirt, pants, draw ers, les, all oil; mats rignt. -ow, just step inside this closet. There may be ladies step in at any moment. Hark ! there they come now ! Jump in quick ! I'll fasten the door. There! you're all right now, Brown. Yes, you're done lirouii, you are. Ha, ha, ha!" imC'owv) Did I pity Brown as I kicked his gar ments out of doors ? and did I chloro form those bees ? Not much. Iy sym pathy was with the poor insects, which, by reason of their entangling alliance with Brown, might, after severing the connection, fail to reach the hive. Chlor oform? Nothing. But I just sprinkled those duds liberally (nothing mean about me except my income I yes, plen tifully, with a liquid mixture of pungent scent and penetrating power, that would stain and burn whatever it might touch. I did not intend to leave Brown in sol itary confinement above half an hour, but twi, !dies came in with a puny girl just before bis time expired, and so bis time was doubled. You see I had no scruples about his contracting a cold, but felt sonle compunction at the prospiet of his dvath from rapid pneumonia! As soon a the ladies had gone I cau tiously opened the closet and remarked : "Say, Iirown, my dinner is spoiling ; will you remain as you are and go with me, or dress lirst ?''

Young man, I am quite aware that in your own estimation, you know all that worth knowing, but for all that, I know there are certain truths which you can either learn from me now, or get your knowledge by sad experience in the future. In age, stature, in appearance, you are a boy, but you are trying by all the arts in your power to make it appear that you are a man. To do this you are (lw fii:mners of certain kind of men. vou are trying to be manly, but why on earth don't you adopt a higher standard of mauh 1? Look at yourself. your dress you have selected ns your model the dandy, the gambler, the fash ionable butterfly: three creations which almost make us doubt the wisdom of Divine Providence when we seek for a reason for their existence. You are suck ing poison into your system through a nasty weed rolled up in the form of a cigar, and you think this is manly. So it It is manly because it isn't beastly. The better instincts of beasts protect them from such vile habits. Vou swing fancy cane, not because you need it lor protection or support, but because some other worthless fellow does it. In fact, you have taken pains to hunt out the worst and the weakest attributes f human nature, and you have taken them your standard of manliness. Shame on you! If you have no individuality of character and must have a model some thing to copy after and imitate why not select some man in the highest sense, one who is as far above the brute as the ones you selected are below? Why not select as your model the man who has won a high and honored position in life, by bis own talents, with habits of indus try, perseverence and application, with out which no life can be a made a suc cess? Have you any plans or purposes as to the part you are to take in this busy, bustling world0 You have of couise in your way. I can read your desires in that direction. You want somebody to give you twenty or fifty thousand dollars to start you in some enterprise. What do you want of this capital? You want it for the advantages it will give you over others. On the same principle if you were going to engage in a pugilistic en counter with a boy of your own size, you would like to be supplied w ith a dirk, a club or a revolver! Shame on you! What a contemptible coward you are! You are afraid to go into the battle of life single hand -d, depending "li your own strength and skill. You want to entrench your sell behind the breast-works of capital j which some braver one has built up. Your own father, no doubt, acquired the competence lc enjoys by a lifetime of hard struggles with the world. He went into the conflict with bis sleeves rolled up, with too much courage and manli ness to ask anybody's help; yet you would not disdain to take the fruit of bis toil, and continue throughout life and and get your support through his exer tion, just as you did when you were a helpless babe. Shame on you! Do you call that manliness? Do you call it bravery? Can't you see that it is the most contemptible coward? But if your father, as I suspect, has to much good sense to help you in making your life a nullity by giving yen capital, you are wishing that by some fortunate chance some person would cive you f '.'0,0(10. Now the w hole essence of this wish is that you want money without giving an equivalent for it. You would take s--0,000, which repre sents somebody's bard labor, and not give a stroke of your own work in ex change for it. Shame on you! Do you call this honesty? Perhaps you don t care whether it is honest or not. Very well; we will put the case in another lieht. Would you be willing to stand on the street corner and ask l!0,(KiO people to give you a dollar apiece. No, of course nut, lor that would be begging; but where on earth does the diU'ert. ice come in? If you get j'JO.OOil without giving any equivalent for it, you are getting other persons' labor, and if there is any differ ence in the methods, it is only the differ ence between begging and cralt. Sup pose by some book r crook you succeed in getting your J0,liOO without any par ticular exertion on your part, just tell me in what respect you are better than the convict in the penitentiary who was placed there for embezzeling that same atuount? He wanted to get some thing for nothing. So do you But i his convict tried lo get the property with out the consent of the owners. Vou want the owners of twenty thousand dollars to consent to give it to you for nothing, or to be compelled to. Shame on you! Where iu your manliness, your nriiie. vour honor.' V oung man you are commencing life with a stock oi wrong ideas, and the worst one is that which leads you to suppose that it is not the highest type of manliness which is clothed in the garb of honest toil. There is no material pronperity that is not the fruit of well directed labor. Taka your place among the workers and be a man, or cultivate your present propen sities and be a social leech, an excres cence which may Heaven take pity on the rest ot mankind by quickly remov ing.

As soon as it began to cool down a little, the heavier materials naturally sank toward the center, while the lighter, now rep resented by the ocean and the atmos phere, lloated ill a gaseous condition on the outside. But the great envelope of vapor thu produced did not consist merely of the constituents of air and water; many other gases and vapors mingle with them, a. they still do to a far less extent in our existing atmos phere. Bv-and-bv, as the cooiing and condensing process continued, the wa ter settled down from the condition of steam into one of a liquid at a dull red heat. As if condensed, it carried down with it a great many other substances, held in solution, wiiose component ele ments had previously existed in the primitive gaseous atmosphere. Thus the early ocean which covered the whole earth was in all probability not only very salt, but also quite thick w ith other mineral matters close up to the point of saturation. It was full of lime, and raw Hint, and .sulphates, and many other miscellaneous bodies. Moreover, it was not only just as sail as al the present day. but even a Treat ileal s.dter.

The Providence Journal has a 1oii:t editorial article headed 'J'eacli the Chihkeu to Draw," in the course of which it expresses some sensible ideas. The development of a child's mind, it says, is an epitome of the mental evo lution of the race. Long before the printed page has any meaning for him, pictures are a delight. His instincts teach him the medium wilh which to express his ideas, and he naturally adopts a bold and broad style. A piece of chalk and a board fence, or a bit of charcoal and a white-washed wall. prove irresistible. Happy the child whose parents furnish him with a black board which he cau lawfully cover with the creations of his fancy. As an il lustration of the practical value of a knowledge of drawing, the Journal adds: "Also, as nearly every manufactured article lirst takes visible shape on pa per, it is of inestimable value to auy mau to be able to draw or to translate a working drawing correctly. James Nasinyth, in his quaint autobiography, tells how much he owed to his inherited taste for drawing while planning; his great steam hammer and other world known inventions. He also tells an amusing story of stujipiug; at a cottage iu a little foreign tow n and trying; to make the good woman understand that he wished for a meal. She laughed merrily when he at length pulled out his sketch-book and drew a fowl, a loaf of bread and a bottle of wine, Willi a plate, knife and fork on a table, and soon a hot dinner was placed be fore li l iu. Many a youuj; girl, though she may never aspire to be au artist, limit her pleasure iu fancy work great ly increased w hen she is able to design and draw her own patterns." 9 An odd coffee machine has been pat ented in Loudon.
